Well, our results are in. We have a genetically normal girl sitting in the freezer!! Woo Hoo!!
Now all she has to do is stick.
I thought for sure when the RE wanted to speak to us before we left for vacation Friday, that the news would be bad; I am go glad it is not.
Now we hang to coordinated DH schedule with the clinic schedule for the frozen transfer.
Updates to come.

Still Waiting
We are still waiting for the results of our PGS testing. We got a phone call requesting we make an appointment to discuss the results with the RE while we were on vacation two weeks ago. I was gone last week, and we leave again this week; so we will not get our results until after we return home. UGH.
The message indicated we would need to sign consent forms, which leads me to believe the results are bad and they need us to sign consents to destroy the embryos. I could meet with the RE two days this week if she is avail, but I don't think I want to ruin my vacation with bad news; so we will wait.
I am very torn. If the results are bad, I may consider egg donation. This may be our only option for a genetic sibling for Sir Chance. Funny thing about this, is I would still be this child's mother. DNA testing today won't pick it up, but on a mitochondrial level, the DNA of the child changes because I am carrying said child. When the technology catches up, it will show I am the mother of the child on a DNA level. Pretty cool stuff. Just something we may consider in the future.
So we just wait....
